Reviews
It was useful to learn what I can change in my diet to improve.
It is for people who are having bowel problems and also trying to understand why they are suffering.
myIBS support programme has been very interesting. The information it provided has helped me understand my condition a lot more. It was helpful and gave me confidence to talk to friends about it. Due to COVID I have been unable to see a GP but I will be going back over the programme to get the info I need to speak to the GP about my condition. Thank you.
A brilliant and very helpful series of articles on dealing with IBS I would totally recommend anyone to sign up to get the help you need.
Gives an outline for the newly diagnosed who knows little.
The programme covered every aspect of IBS. There were facts and tips about living with it, most I was surprised to find I didn’t know. Also new research has meant I understand more thoroughly how the condition works and how to manage it better.
It was clear from the start that I was going to find out how to handle better some of the concerns that have been bothering me for some time. This has been an excellent program to follow.
Fantastic support programme, everybody with IBS should use it.
Good for those new to IBS.
Informative, genuine and down to earth.
The myibs support programme helped me a great deal. It helps you to understand IBS a lot better and it also helps to find what triggers it. The support you get is first class. They help a great deal. Also others who are the same can help one another and share diffent things with each other which is fine many thanks.
Very knowlegable and helpful.
Everything was very clear and interesting. It told me more than my doctor did.
Overall very good and practical advice.
Great place to meet friends and talk about IBS.
